Bellaire at Stone Port in Harrisonburg, VA

4.5
The major factors were the size of the community. It is small enough to not be intimidating. The other huge factor for my brother is that it actually has a decent size group of older guys who eat together, watch sports events together and keep each other company.

I would recommend this community. The value for our loved one was there. The community has all retirees and a bus service that comes to the door of the residents. The meals needs to be improved due to price. The community changed ownership about a year ago, and they were making changes.
